The players: Brandie Sharp and her sons, 17-year-old Mycah and 11-year-old Uriah.

The scene: Delivering “The Bag” (Columbus Dispatch) full of newspaper ads, to porches because new ordinance in town that means papers have to be delivered directly to someone’s porch or into a mail slot, versus the driveway.

Act 1: Uriah delivers to the wrong house, so walks back to pick up the papers.

Act 2: Someone calls the local 911 because

“It looked like at first they were delivering newspapers or something, but I noticed they were walking up to the houses with nothing in hand and one of them came back with something,”

Act 3: Police respond.

“When our officer arrived on scene, he very quickly determined very quickly that these individuals were delivering the newspaper.”
